Michele Freeman

I am a teacher, writer and producer based in Sydney. My written work has been published in the Sydney Morning Herald, Daily Life, Meanjin and Overland. I have also produced stories for FBi’ Radio’s “All the Best” program, and have worked with local councils and community groups to produce local stories, capturing ‘ordinary people and their extraordinary lives’ using digital media.

I am a member of the western Sydney women writer’s collective, Finishing School, and in 2017 I was the recipient of the WestWords Emerging Writer’s Fellowship.

I am currently working on my first full-length novel set in Sydney’s Western suburbs.

I enjoy writing both fiction and non-fiction and often write about music, culture and the arts, politics and society and the human experience.

Previously, I worked in the non profit sector for over ten years on a range of social justice campaigns and community development issues, and I enjoy combining my community development background with my love of storytelling and creative digital media.
